No such risk while using Nquitvmode instead The primitive was introduced in rprTEX 1 21a vadjust pre spec filler vertical mode material The vadjust implementation of ppr TFX adds an optional qualifier pre spec which is the string pre to the original TEX primitive with the same name As long as there is no pre given Nvad just behaves exactly as the original see the TEXbook p 281 it appends an adjustment item created from vertical mode material to the current list after the line in which Nvad just appears However with the qualifier pre the adjustment item is put before the line in which vadjust pre appears Graphics PpFIEX supports inclusion of pictures in PNG JPEG JBIG2 and PDF format a few differences between these are discussed below The most common technique with TEX the inclusion of Eps figures is replaced by rrr inclusion Eps files can be converted to rpr by Guostscript Adobe Distiller or other PostScript to PDF converters The rrr format is currently the most versatile source format for graphics embedding rprIgX allows to insert arbitrary pages from rrr files with their own fonts graphics and pixel images into a document The cover page of this manual is an example of such an insert being a one page document generated by PDFIRX By default rprTEX takes the BoundingBox of a rrr file from its CropBox if available otherwise from its MediaBox This can be influenced by the pdf box spec

37. X configuration One has to keep in mind that as opposed to TEX with its pvi output the por TEX program does not require a separate postprocessing stage to transform the TEX input into a rpr file As a consequence all data needed for building a ready por page must be available during the rprIEX run in particular information on media dimensions and offsets graphics files for embedding and font information font files encodings When TEX builds a page it places items relative to the top left page corner the pvr reference point Separate pv postprocessors allow specifying the paper size e g A4 or letter so that this reference point is moved to the correct position on the paper and the text ends up at the right place In ror the paper dimensions are part of the page definition and rprIEX therefore requires that they be defined at the beginning of the rprIgX run As with pages described by PosrScnrrr the rpr reference point is in the lower left corner Formerly these dimensions and other rprIEX parameters were read in from a configuration file named pdftex cfg which had a special non TpX format at the start of processing Nowadays such a file is ignored by pprTpx Instead the page dimensions and offsets as well as many other parameters can be set by ppr TEX primitives during the ppr TEX format building process so that the settings are dumped into the fresh format and consequently will be used when rprIEX is later called
